==Notices==
Thanks for joining up! We're in the very early days at the minute. I've tagged loads of articles with the banner, and rated them on quality and importance. 

It would be really useful if you could tag any articles you know of relating to the project. I think that has to be our first priority to get more members involved and see the scale of the problem!

If anyone knows how to update the table? I read it somewhere but can't find it. If the table doesn't update then we can't see the scope of the project. [[User:KlickingKarl|KlickingKarl]] ([[User talk:KlickingKarl|talk]]) 12:00, 24 April 2009 (UTC)


[[User:User:DShamen|DShamen]] is going through Nottinghamshire pages and adding new categories based on localities.  He is then grouping by local government areas, I not sure how useful this'll prove to be.  What I do think is incorrect and he has not replied to me about is that he has called, Broxtowe, Gedling and Rushcliffe '''districts'''  e.g. People from Broxtowe (district).  Is this something this group is concerned about.  It looks like the process for renaming the categories is not particularly simple, so i don't want to waste time on it if nobody else is concerned.  [[User:Bevo74|Bevo74]] ([[User talk:Bevo74|talk]]) 17:40, 23 July 2009 (UTC)


I've tagged quite a few more articles, including all the main districts of Nottingham and Nottinghamshire now. Some of them are very simple stubs and really need lots of attention for such important area articles. [[Nottingham City Hospital]], [[Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust]] (now one of the biggest in the country) and [[Queen%27s_Medical_Centre|Queen's Medical Centre]] articles all need lots of work too and are quite important to the city.[[User:KlickingKarl|KlickingKarl]] ([[User talk:KlickingKarl|talk]]) 23:33, 11 September 2009 (UTC)


Good to see some new members on here and that the number of article assessed by us is increasing, but we need to keep finding our scope and work towards setting some achievable goals. [[User:KlickingKarl|KlickingKarl]] ([[User talk:KlickingKarl|talk]]) 00:21, 11 March 2010 (UTC)


It would be good if now we have assessed a number of articles we could select an article to work on for the month of June. As this is a small project at the minute, I think if we all concentrate on improving one article and raising it's standard this well be a great achievement. Any suggestions are welcome here.

==Categories==
You can assign a category to a page simply by adding <nowiki>[[Category:Category name]]</nowiki> to the page's wikitext source. In order to reference a category within a page as a normal wiki link (without adding the page to the category) prefix the link name with a colon. For example: [[:Category:Not in this category]]

*[[:Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in Nottinghamshire]]

* [[:Category:Nottinghamshire]]

<categorytree>Nottinghamshire</categorytree>
==Templates==
You can add the {{tl|WikiProject Nottinghamshire}} banner to articles under our scope. This gives;
{{WikiProject Nottinghamshire|category=no}}
{{Wikipedia:WikiProject Nottinghamshire/Userbox}}
The Userbox be added to your '''User''' Page by copying the template <nowiki>{</nowiki>{[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Nottinghamshire/Userbox]]}}
